This text explores the impact of information and communications technologies on the changing economic relationship between Europe and the Developing World, in the context of telematics-related trade, work organization and distance education. The contributors elucidate the reasons why the phenomenon of globalization need not be a battleground of competing nations. The essays written by researchers and practitioners, from the European Union and Developing Countries, identify the areas where policy interventions could lead to "co-operative competition" between the EU and the developing world. The book contains empirical data and should be of particular interest to scholars and policymakers engaged with the questions of spatial division of labour, emerging trading links, information processing work, the "brain-drain" and tele-education.
